While the efficient markets hypothesis continues to be taught by some, it has been proven that markets are over-reactive dynamic systems, and investors are not always rational. One way to examine how market sentiment has changed over time is to look at the interaction between a company's share price and its earnings per share (EPS).
Over half a decade, SRG Global managed to grow its earnings per share at 35% a year. This EPS growth is lower than the 46% average annual increase in the share price. This suggests that market participants hold the company in higher regard, these days. And that's hardly shocking given the track record of growth.
The image below shows how EPS has tracked over time (if you click on the image you can see greater detail).
We know that SRG Global has improved its bottom line lately, but is it going to grow revenue? This free report showing analyst revenue forecasts should help you figure out if the EPS growth can be sustained.
When looking at investment returns, it is important to consider the difference between total shareholder return (TSR) and share price return. The TSR incorporates the value of any spin-offs or discounted capital raisings, along with any dividends, based on the assumption that the dividends are reinvested. Arguably, the TSR gives a more comprehensive picture of the return generated by a stock. We note that for SRG Global the TSR over the last 5 years was 728%, which is better than the share price return mentioned above. The dividends paid by the company have thusly boosted the total shareholder return.
It's nice to see that SRG Global shareholders have received a total shareholder return of 77% over the last year. Of course, that includes the dividend. That's better than the annualised return of 53% over half a decade, implying that the company is doing better recently. Someone with an optimistic perspective could view the recent improvement in TSR as indicating that the business itself is getting better with time. It's always interesting to track share price performance over the longer term. But to understand SRG Global better, we need to consider many other factors. To that end, you should be aware of the 2 warning signs we've spotted with SRG Global .

Green Technology Metals Announces Large, High-Grade Rubidium Resource at Seymour Project, Ontario
TORONTO and PERTH, Australia, July 24, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Green Technology Metals Ltd (ASX: GT1) ('GT1' or 'the Company'), a Canadian-focused multi-asset lithium business, is pleased to announce a significant milestone at its Seymour Project in Ontario, Canada, with the release of a maiden Rubidium Mineral Resource. Hosted within the same pegmatite system as the company's lithium resource at North Aubry, this Rubidium discovery has the potential to convert material previously considered waste into a valuable by-product stream. Recognised as a critical mineral by both the United States and Japan, Rubidium plays a key role in advanced electronics, aerospace, quantum computing, and defence applications. GT1's vertically integrated strategy now offers exposure to multiple high-value markets through this exciting new resource. Maiden Rubidium Mineral Resource Estimate – Seymour Project Strategic and Market Context Rubidium is a high-value critical mineral, trading at approximately USD $1,060 per kilogram for high-purity material. Globally recognized as essential to defence, aerospace, quantum computing, and advanced electronics, Rubidium is included on critical minerals lists in the United States and Japan. Historic metallurgical test work confirmed Rubidium grades of up to 1.3% Rb in mica-rich waste streams at Seymour. This mica, already removed as part of GT1's lithium processing flowsheet, presents a compelling low-cost by-product opportunity. GT1 is among the few companies globally to actively explore the recovery of Rubidium from lithium operations. This aligns with the Company's strategy to maximise resource value and support a sustainable, diversified critical minerals supply chain. Managing Director Cameron Henry commented: 'The discovery of significant Rubidium mineralisation at Seymour adds an exciting new dimension to our project's strategic value. As one of the largest high-grade Rubidium resources on the ASX and the most substantial in Canada, Seymour is well positioned to play a critical role in the global supply of this high-value specialty metal. Rubidium's importance in advanced technologies and its recognition as a critical mineral by the US and Japan highlight the growing demand and strategic relevance of this metal. By investigating Rubidium products as a low-cost by-product alongside our core lithium operations, we can unlock additional value, enhance project sustainability, and provide diversified exposure for investors. We look forward to progressing targeted test work to better understand Rubidium's recovery potential and to further integrate this opportunity within our broader strategy and government engagement initiatives.'
